ATCs For All - Angels (Not Cherubs)

I made my mind up to try different techniques on this theme.


This picture was perfect for piecing.  I printed it out several times and then cut the pieces from several papers.  I attached one copy to a card background which had been sprayed and stencilled.  I paper pieced the angel and outlined it all with a gold pen.

Take one chocolate box, some punch waste and corrugated die cuts.  Spray the angel with several watercolours and paint it along the currugates to suggest features.  Cut an ATC out of the box, add the angel and decorate with the punch waste along the lower edge.  Use a gold pen to add to the background and along the leaves.

I drew this angel shape onto a spritzed card.  Using a doily I cut out the dress from the border and then the sleeve from the centre part of the doily and attached to the card.  Small pieces of pink paper were used for face and hands.  The hair was drawn with gelpens.  I drew outlines in gold pen to the wings and then added some real feathers as wings.  This was really tricky, I didn't think feathers and glue ........

I cut out this outline of an angel several times.  I used the leftover doily for the wings,keeping the body of the angel as is.  I found a small drawstring bag and cut out the dress from both sides, attaching one piece to the angel.  After attaching the wings, I attached the top layer of the dress along the edges to the first layer.  Adding the body to the angel left her with empty hands!  I found my confetti jars and added some stars and glitter.
